Kunal smiled and said while placing his hand on Sony's "I will choose my girlfriend tonight".
Sony shook her head "No it's okay, Ask her to go with you. Moreover, I really can't dance".
Kunal said "It's okay, follow my lead, I am not so weak to let my woman fall and get hurt while dancing with me".
Pumpkin snorted like an angry bull and muttered "What an eyesore, you are such an impudent person forgetting sister soon after you got yourself a girlfriend".
Kunal said with a faint smile "She only has one boyfriend but you two brothers, see there is the other one". Saying so he pointed towards the entrance and everyone saw both Barun and Rahul walking inside.
Sony smiled and gave her hand to her man who was waiting. They both walked hand in hand towards the dance floor. Kunal said when he passed by his brother "Bring Pumpkin to the dancefloor and don't leave her alone".
Before Barun could say anything Kunal walked away with her woman. He saw towards the table and saw a woman on black dress. She was busy with her phone with her head held down. Rahul who stood beside his friend patted on his shoulder and said "Go".
Abhi and Shriya started moving with the flow of the music. It was a slow and a romantic melody and it gave a sense of peace and relief to the atmosphere.
Abhi placed his one arm around Shriya's slim waist while the other was holding her hand. Shriya placed her hand on his firm chest and they both looked at each other in their eyes and started moving in unison.
Abhi didn't expect Shriya to dance so perfectly. Her every move was smooth like the flow of the water. She moved with utmost ease and with perfect coordination with his movements.
Sony and Kunal also went to the dance floor. He held her hands moved with the flow of the music holding her hands. He was true to his word when he said he will not let her fall.
He held her tightly making sure not to let her stmble but his touch was gentle on her skin. He smiled and whispered in her ears "You are not as bad as I thought at dancing".
She smiled sweetly and replied "It's because you are not allowing me do anything, doing everything on your own."
He whispered in her ears with a teasing smile touching his lips on her earlobes "You are on a diet. Aren't you ?"
She moved a little back and looked at his face as she didn't get what he was saying. He said understanding her questioning gaze "Your tummy is flat" he moved his hand which is on her waist earlier to a bit forward onto her front of the stomach.
Her stomach was flat unlike earlier. She covered it with the loose dress but she has no idea how he could see it. She was indeed dieting and was busy with workouts lately. He said "You looked fine as is, you don't have to go on a diet".
Naveen held her woman's hand and they both danced with hand in hand. A smile appeared on his face when he saw Abhi and Shriya who were staring at each other as if they were the only there. He then looked at Sony who was smiling brightly in the arms of her man. He said looking at Brahmini who is observing him "Today, I am in a good mood after a really long time." She smiled and enjoyed the moment.
While these were enjoying Barun walked upto her sister who was busy with her phone. He stood at the table and said "Mind a dance with me ?".
She looked up to see his face and asked with a smile pointing her index finger towards herself "Are you talking to me ?". Though she has a smile on her lips there was a clear mockery in her eyes.
He looked at her with a guilty face and said "Yes" and after a moment of quick thought he said with a deep sigh "I am sorry".
She kept her phone aside and asked looking at him intensely "What are you apologizing for ?"
He sat beside her in the chair, held her hand and said "I know I am at fault when I choose to remain silent when Grandpa was making a scene at the house".
She asked with a cold tone "Are you really sorry. You choose to abandon me ?".
One could see how much he was guilty about the issue. He replied with an indifferent time but his eyes were saying something else. He said "I am really guilty and that was the reason that why I couldn't face you for the last two years. But back then, I was afraid of grandpa and bhai was also not there at that moment. I was helpless."
She asked with a mocking tone "Are you sure you were helpless. I am the one who was helpless. Bhai was not there at that time and I expected some concern and help from you but you choose to be selfish and abandonment without a second thought".
Barun was already guilty enough and her words made him even more guilty "I know I was a coward and even now I am making excuses. But please accept my apology".
There were traces of tears in his eyes but they didn't fall. He lowered his head in shame and she said with a cold tone "Okay, I accept your apology. But never be a coward again. You already took two years to come talk to me and apologize. If it wasn't for elder brother, you wouldn't have come even now right?".
He looked at her and she smiled with her bright but moist eyes and he said "I am sorry." and she replied "It's okay because you helped me to get to grandma's house and protected me all this time".
She knew how much he cared for her. But he was afraid of getting on his grandpa's bad side. Afterall he is the one who is leading the family business. And she also know that he has been trying to protect her all the time from others. So she forgave him.
He took her hand and both of them walked to the dance floor. She then teased her brother "Elder brother got himself a girlfriend. When are your going to find yourself a woman ?".
They already reached the dance floor and they started dancing like any other pair. Both are from a powerful family and they were given classes in dancing, so they were good at it. They started moving to the beat of the song and he suddenly asked looking into her eyes in a serious tone "So what about you ? How is your cute little junior scientist ?".
